Isaiah's multiple myeloma treatment fund

4 rounds of treatment are planned at Dallas University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Isaiah was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in August. The oncology team at Dallas University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Isaiah is 39, worked as a construction supervisor until August, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Dallas University Hospital 3 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly. We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $8,450 goes: โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,400 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $1,600 โ€ข Transport to Dallas University Hospital: $920 โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $750 โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $780 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
